Admin compensation – CUSD 200 (part 1)

I had submitted a FOIA to Wheaton-Warrenville, CUSD 200, for some administrator contracts last summer [2016].

I was wondering just how much more generous they are than the Teachers’ contracts. First thing we confirmed is that while teachers make their own pension payments, the district pays the employee portion for administrators. Checking the compensation report we discovered that this cost the district $602,454.89 in 2016 [correction – thee FOIA was summer 2015 – time flies].

The bulk of the administrator contracts matched Biscan’s and were for July 1, 2015 to June 30, 2016. I will use it as a sample.

One, Bossier is different. She had a grandfathered contract with the pension spike and she was on the retirement track. I believe the last of the employees with this 6% end-of-career option retired in 2016.

Superintendent, Dr. Schuler’s contract is unique. It is a multi-year contract (Sep 2, 2014 through June 30, 2018). Available on the district website: Superintendent Contract

We also have some older administrator contracts which were even more generous.

These contracts contain some benefits that exceed what is in the teacher’s contract (WWEA) – available on the district website: link to contract

From Biscan’s Contract:

In Bossier’s contract the following paragraph was included. She was grandfathered into the old contract that offered 6% end-of-career spiking.
